We have observed that participants improve in response time but decrease in accuracy after extended repetitive work in a data entry task.
"We have an increase in fouls, but not a decrease in accuracy," Pereira said in a telephone interview yesterday.
The slightly different distance calculations (see Eq. 3) lead to a decrease in accuracy.
Furthermore, there is a steady decrease in accuracy when the segment size increases from 100 to 600 (Fig. 4).
This can be a source for the decrease in accuracy of the identification of the query sample.
The mean decrease in accuracy (MDA) is the average of such estimates (for equations and a fuller explanation, see [57, 60]).
Using the described method for longer sections (several kilometers), results in the decrease in accuracy of approximately 10 mm for each additional kilometer.
The decrease in accuracy in the body representation of the right thumb is lower, than the increase of performance of the sixth finger.
In contrast, dizocilpine (a high-affinity NMDA open-channel blocker) produced a more pronounced decrease in accuracy in the PCP-treated rats than in the saline-treated rats.
All three main effects reached significance, all three indicating a decrease in accuracy.
We speculate that this decrease in accuracy with an increasing number of sites is a result of the increasing number of unique haplotypes that result from longer sequences.
